How to Upgrade iOS 10 in your iPhone

Apple has launched the much-awaited iOS 10 beta version some days back, and you can now upgrade to iOS 10 from older version of iOS. The version comes up with unique features including improved Apple Music, Siri SDK, revamped messages and much more.

First, you'll need to prepare your iOS device for the update, and the first step is backing things up in case you run into a problem. A full backup to iTunes is recommended, and it should be encrypted if you wish to preserve your Health and Activity data. Archiving the backup is also a good idea to make sure it remains available should you need to roll back from iOS 10.
